Meet Nina Howard — a multidisciplinary artist, designer, and wellness pioneer with decades of experience in the healing and visual arts.
Nina began her career in New York City after graduating top of her class from the Fashion Institute of Technology. Her early work in interior design led to her first art commission at Merrill Lynch, launching a 45-year career in modern abstract painting with works in public and private collections across the U.S. and Europe.
In 1994, she founded Bellanina Day Spa and Institute in Ann Arbor, Michigan—an award-winning spa, art gallery, and training school. Over the next two decades, Nina built a million-dollar business, created her own skincare line, and trained professionals in holistic wellness techniques.
Now based in Western North Carolina, Nina continues to paint, speak, and share her vision for integrated beauty and well-being.
